Trent Intervenes and Other Stories

Artist, connoisseur and private detective, Philip Trent, features in this classic and unputdownable collection, comprising eleven short stories. Including The Genuine Tabard in which a clergyman and unique objets d'art are involved in a neat confidence trick; The Foolproof Lift, in which a blackmailing valet is found murdered; and The Ordinary Hairpins in which a golden-haired opera singer commits suicide - but Trent is wisely suspicious.
